<p>Hi this is my first time ever posting to this site, so thank you in advance to any help. i just got my ACT scores back, it was the first time I ever took he test. My composite score was 26. My math was a 25, reading 30, english 21, science 27, and my combined english/writing 23, my Writing was a 10.
How are these scores in your opinion? I plan on taking it again, any suggestions on what prep book i should get? and lastly I think my writing score was pretty good, in order for me to send that score to colleges do I need to send all my scores for this test or can I just send the writing score?
Thank You!</p>
<p>How good a score is simply depends on where you want to apply. Your score is good enough for about 80% of all colleges. However, it is way low for ivies, Stanford, MIT, and many other higher ranked colleges. When sending to colleges, you must send the entire test score and cannot just send a section score such as writing (that is literally impossible to do becuase the testing agency always send the entire test score).</p>
